Undecided Upon

Two of my undecided upon photos for the Decisive Challenge. Shot on the same day as the challenge so I didn't post now until the voting is closed... didn't want to potentially give away my location! ;)~


Thanks Warren for inviting to the challenge!

Lea,

Stanford? I like the bottom picture with the pointed head racks over the bike racks. They allow you not to loose your mind.

Both really nice, Lea! Yes, the Decisive Challenge photo day was a lot of fun. If Kent follows his plan, there will be another Challenge day in six months, and I hope more people will participate. I like the fact that we tagged all our photos from that day so that we can view them all together.

Yes it was Stanford. The one I submitted, A Dark Place, was from the underpass of the CalTrain on University Ave. I had loved that tunnel effect since we moved there but had been unable to get something meaningful from it prior to. Congrats to Gail for another great challenge shot!!

Lea, since Gail chose the camera bag, that leaves you with the 100' of film. I guess you have no choice but to get into film photography, right?! :)

I have plenty of film cameras for you to choose from, and try.

Hmmm, tempting offer Warren... Originally I was just going to gift this to someone. But I do time for experimenting....... Might take you up on this ;D

Lea,

I think 100' of film equates to about 18 rolls of 36 exp. You'll need to pick up a bulk film loader, and some reusable film cartridges. Most people who bulk load usually develop the film themselves, otherwise you'll need to find a lab who will give you your film canisters back for reloading. There are Caffenol film developing recipes that I've been meaning to try (developer based on instant coffee), or you can use traditional chemicals. I also have developing tanks that you can borrow if you want.

One website devoted to Caffenol deveoping: http://www.caffenol.org/

I have the option for boxed roll film --I think that would be easier/better for me. What kind of camera would you recommend I try?

And coincidentally, I watched a do-it-yourself Caffenol video this morning and was thinking of trying it! Will check out the website as well :)
